The difference between inflation exploits on privacy coins like Monero and Zcash, and inflation exploits on Bitcoin, is on Bitcoin because amounts are transparent it's practically guaranteed that the inflation will be discovered very quickly. With Monero and Zcash, if an inflation exploit is being used, your only sign might be the price falling. And that's certainly not a reliable indicator.

You don't care about privacy because you are a FED plant, Bitcoin had a inflation bug without any privacy implementation, you are not a coward you are a puppet of Israeli intelligence. You must be expelled from this community and not touch bitcoin code implementation never again. https://decrypt.co/39750/184-billion-bitcoin-anonymous-creator https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2018/09/21/the-latest-bitcoin-bug-was-so-bad-developers-kept-its-full-details-a-secret/

Simply because all supposed to be cryptographers or supposed to have notion in economics or computer science want to run a parallel Cash system to live up to Bitcoin or even surpass it: ‘I better understand the ideology behind Bitcoin.. Then, I could run a better electronic cash, more fluid & helpful than Satoshi!’ ... Bitcoin isn’t a private currency or derived from a private protocol!

In order for a transaction to be accepted by consensus rules, it has to prove that the sum of its inputs and outputs are zero. There is not a way to cryptographically sum up the entire chain.
